Reconcile every position, every trade and all client money.
Aurum brings your books together with custodian, broker and bank records, reconciles positions, transactions and cash intraday, and holds unsettled trades apart from genuine breaks. Prove your client money and custody position on any given day, and evidence it from the same platform that produced it.
How can Aurum help financial services firms?
Reconcile three ways, not two
Most firms have three sources, not two: the position in the portfolio system, the expected position at the custodian, and the custodian's own record. Reconciled two ways you are trusting one of them. Aurum reconciles across all three, proving your internal systems against each other as well as against the counterparty, which is what catches a trade booked in one system and missed in another.
Separate settlement timing from genuine breaks
A trade booked today and settling tomorrow is not a break, but reconciled by hand every one of them looks like one. Aurum matches on trade date or settlement date basis as your process requires, ages open items against expected settlement, and flags only those that have genuinely failed — usually the single largest reduction in exception volume a firm sees.
Track position breaks that remember yesterday
Every day brings a completely new set of positions, so a break tracked against the position record starts from scratch each morning and loses everything anyone learned about it. Aurum tracks position breaks against the security identifier instead, so ageing, comments and every change to the difference carry forward, and unchanged breaks arrive already aged rather than re-uploaded by hand.
Prove client money and custody assets every day
Internal and external reconciliations, both CASS 7 calculation methods, custody holdings compared by security and quantity, shortfalls valued and raised as cases with the rule they touch. The daily position is produced as balances arrive rather than assembled by someone, and the CMAR or safeguarding return is generated from the same dataset that produced the reconciliation.
Align the basis before you compare
One source gives the traded position, including everything executed but not yet settled. Another gives the settled position as at last night. Compared directly they never agree, and the difference is not a break. Aurum aligns the basis first, adding trades to date to the settled position until both sides describe the same thing.
Reconcile the books that feed your valuation
Front office and accounting views of the same portfolio drift apart for structural reasons, and at period end that drift becomes an argument rather than an explanation. Aurum reconciles your accounting book of record against your investment book of record from the same data and the same audit trail, so the difference is attributable rather than disputed.
Load every counterparty format without a project
Custodians and brokers report in SWIFT ISO 15022 messages, and the industry is migrating to ISO 20022 while the old formats are still in use. Aurum reads MT535, MT536 and MT537 natively alongside FIX, XML, CSV, spreadsheet extracts and statements arriving as email attachments, so onboarding a counterparty is configuration rather than a build, and a format change is not a project.
Add products and volume without adding people
New asset classes, new custodians, new entities and rising volumes all land on the same team. Firms running on Aurum have absorbed years of growth without additional reconciliation headcount, because adding a source or an entity inherits the rules, calendars and controls already in place.
What results did Aurum deliver in Financial Services?

“Aurum means we can look at Operations in a different way – our teams don’t need to grow to keep on top of reconciliations, instead we can focus on enhancing our product offerings for our customers.”
Kaley Addo
Head of Investment Operations
“Aurum allowed us to move from a manual, two-way cash reconciliation with our broker to an automated three-way reconciliation, which allows our fund managers to know precisely how much cash they have available for trading. We could never have done this before due to restraints on time and resourcing, and the complexity involved.”

What does Aurum FinanceOS do?
AI powered, all in one platform to centralise your finance operations.
Data collection that runs itself
Financial Data Automation connects to your custodians, brokers, prime brokers, banks, portfolio and trading systems through API, SFTP or SWIFT, and retrieves from a portal where no API exists. It can listen to an inbox and process the custodian statement or broker confirmation that arrives as a PDF, and it standardises security identifiers such as ISIN, CUSIP, SEDOL and ticker along with currencies, quantities and settlement dates before anything is matched.
Matching you configure, not code
Set match rules in natural language or with expressions, take the AI-suggested rule as a starting point, and apply tolerances so price rounding and FX movement don't become breaks. One-to-many, tiered and cascading sequences handle partial fills, allocations across accounts and consolidated settlements.
Exception management built for breaks that behave differently
Trade breaks are rolling, so open items age against expected settlement date. Position breaks are point-in-time, tracked against the security identifier so ageing and comment history carry forward as each day's positions arrive. Exceptions are classified by risk, assigned and escalated on your own rules, with a daily review of new or existing breaks where your controls require it.
Journals posted straight to your ERP
Journal Entry Automation turns reconciled outcomes into double-entry journals using your own posting rules and GL mapping, with fees, FX differences, settlement discrepancies and client equity movements separated rather than bundled. Post directly to your ERP or export in whatever format it expects, with validation and approval before anything lands.

A cash position your fund managers can trade on
Reconcile cash across broker, custodian and internal records intraday, so the figure in front of a portfolio manager is today's available cash rather than last night's. Settlement timing, fees, pending adjustments and safeguarding movements are all accounted for in the position.
Embedded AI
Aurum's AgentOne works inside the product you are already in. Ask why a position has not matched and it answers from the data on screen, proposes a candidate matching rule or drafts the correcting entry for your approval, and explains what a run did. It holds its own identity, acts on behalf of a named person, and writes nothing without a human approving it.
Easy to scale solution
Any asset class, buy-side or sell-side. Equities, fixed income, derivatives and more through the same platform, across separate legal entities each with their own rules, calendars and currencies, with one consolidated view of the group.
Best support in the industry
Get support that moves at your pace. On average, we answer in 21 minutes and resolve 87% of cases in under 24 hours, from a UK-based team with financial services specialists on it. Backed by 5 star Trustpilot reviews.

Why switch to Aurum now?
T+1 halves the time you have to get it right
On 11 October 2027 the UK, EU and Switzerland move from T+2 to T+1, following North America in May 2024. Allocation, confirmation, funding, FX and reconciliation all have to complete inside a single business day, so an overnight reconciliation reviewed the following morning now happens after the settlement deadline rather than before it. Aurum reconciles intraday as custodian and broker data arrives, which is the difference between preventing a fail and reporting one.
The client assets regime keeps widening
CASS 15 brought payments and e-money firms into a safeguarding regime with mandatory annual audit in May 2026, and CASS 16 and 17 bring stablecoin issuers and cryptoasset custodians in from 25 October 2027. Firms holding fiat alongside cryptoassets fall under CASS 7 as well, which widens the obligation more than most expect. Building the control once, on a platform that already covers the chapters in force, is cheaper than building it per regime.
The regulator expects automation, and has said so
The FCA has written to firms about the importance of deploying automation in this area, and manual reconciliation is increasingly difficult to evidence as a control. A spreadsheet can produce the calculation but not the segregation between clients, the immutable record of who changed what, or the alert when a shortfall appears.
A bespoke or in-house tool is a single point of failure
In-house reconciliation tools need maintenance and periodic rebuilds as products, custodians, platforms and settlement cycles change — and T+1 is exactly the kind of change that turns a working internal tool into a programme. Configuration you control, with support behind it, removes the dependency without giving up customisation.
